He has broken my strength,
And has shortened my days;
Weakened at such a length,
By the sinner who strays.
Take me away O God,
Whose years endure throughout;
Generations have flawed,
In having so much doubt.
God laid the foundation,
With the work of His hands;
Heavenly creation,
By His voice He commands.
He changes like a robe;
As sinners pass away;
Perish around the globe,
But the Lord will still stay.
The Lord remains the same,
For His years have no end;
His children shall proclaim,
His servants as His friend.
Their offspring established,
As they shall dwell secured;
But sinners are punished,
No longer be endured.
